What has she got to do with it? Blame OLD MAN WINTER for this white mess.

It's not a regular thing here to have so much snow at -20 with a windchill of -33, which makes it just nasty for doing the clean up.

I gave up measuring, But it just keeps stacking up.
And with one wheel Drive & a long Driveway.
no idea when I'll be able to drive again





next Snow Storms are now expected Wednesday/Thursday & Saturday/Sunday

My boots were full of snow, before I got the snow blower out of the garage!!

 

[wainzoid]

TV just went off. Now I gotta climb up on my two story roof and clean off my dish. Hip hip hooray!

 

[wainzoid]

I guess I shouldn't have said what I did about mother nature. Should I delete that post and see what happens, before I climb up on the roof?

I know what ya mean Coop! I've had the winter doldrums and wondered what I used to do to get over it -
Oh yeah, 30 years later it came to me - with a new purchase last week - just fly through winter!

Nope. Not here. I finally commend MN and OMW.
This has been the best winter in a decade here. Last winter �� was bad.
Ground has continually been easily dug, (woods), and very little snow. Wednesday will be 48. Future forecasts predict same.
I hope you all are well. Be safe.
Peace ✌

Don't worry, be happy. Someday you'll be old and become a "Winter Texan". Then after 3-5 months down here,after being in a place that closely resembles Mexico, hell and a 3rd world country, you'll go back up there and know why you lived there for so long. And, you'll have a new tatoo:
she's a real beauty
a mexican cutie
how it got here I haven't a clue.

Few years back a buddy encouraged me to try his sled out. I hadn't been on one in decades. His looked similar to yours, a mid 90's model with a triple cylinder..I couldn't believe that thing, even with my giant self on it, it was all I could do to hold onto that thing..lol think it was the first time I actually scared myself. Unbelievable acceleration, bet if I'd kept on the throttle I could have seen blue sky for a mile...gotta get myself one of those

Snow, snow and more snow! The first "warm" above 20 degrees day I'm going to the beach to hunt. It appears the only place remaining to dig around here!

Someone missing/drop a big bag of flour?

 

[jeff of pa]

I was out today to start my Vehicle.
had to crawl in the back again doors were froze shut.

I was also able to walk on top of the snow.
Probably about a Foot of Icey snow.
it is up to the frame of my vehicle.

I also noticed I used over half a tank of Gas since I've been snowed in
just keeping a little warmth & oil moving in the engine occasionally

I hear ya, maybe another Great Lakes total freeze-over this winter again if it doesn't let up!

-32 when I scraped the inside of the window to look out at the thermometer, tractor plugged in 24/7 and it was everything for it to start yesterday to clear the foot of the fluffy angle dust, and they're calling for another 8" by the end of the week.

The only bonus to having the lakes freezing over again is the water labels will stay higher.

Still going snowshoeing in the bush tomorrow!

Come on down Boys..."The water is fine"!




P.S. There's no such thing as "Mother Nature"! She's a fairy tale.
Maybe that's why the snow is so deep up there.....


And if the fish aren't biting....I'm standing in the shadow of a great treasure hunter.....wait....that's me!




I do feel bad for you guys.....I got tired of the cold myself....time is short!
